Seems like the machine is right this time - BIPAP ASV. I felt deep rest last night. The advice from the device clinic and from my co-producer was spot on.
My walking out happened at the precise time for maximum effect. The meeting was for quality and patient safety and was not working while I was in attendance.
Take the prescribed path until it does not work anymore. Escalate. If that fails, top-down. Dealing with human multi-level hierarchies takes a skill that is not well known. Experience has trained me well.
The outcome is a machine that can be programmed for me so I can get enough oxygen during sleep. And that happened without taking too much risk - stopped breathing, not good.
Waiting a week for the report and, soon thereafter, having one at home.
